Aah Ko Chaahiye Ik 'umr Asar Hone Tak
Kaun Jeeta Hai Teree Zulf Ke Sar Hone Tak ?

Aashiqee Sabr Talab Aur Tamanna Betaab
Dil Ka Kya Rang Karoon Khoon-e-jigar Hone Tak ?

Ham Ne Maana Ke Taghaful Na Karoge, Lekin
Khaak Ho Jaayenge Ham Tumko Khabar Hone Tak

Gham-e-hastee Ka 'asad' Kis'se Ho Juz Marg Ilaaz
Shamma'a Har Rang Mein Jaltee Hai Sahar Hone Tak
